Hired Law Firm
I hired this firm after my insurance placed me at fault in a left turn accident. I was told by many attorney that they would not take my case. Pavel was able to convince my insurance that I was not at fault. I was very happy with his service and his very prompt communication. When my case what's settled I was more than happy with the outcome. Thank you to this firm
Great attorney and law office, the paralegals are all very friendly and informative. I dealt with Jessica, she helped me understand the process every step of the way. My insurance wanted to place me at fault until I hired this law firm and all of a sudden I was no Longer at fault. I was more than pleased with my settlement, would definitely recommend.
Mr. Sterin was very professional. He was always there to answer any of my question. I have dealt with attorneys in the past and it has always been impossible to get a hold of them. He helped me with my car accident case from start to finish. I was surprised with my settlement, it was much more than I expected.

Hired Law Firm
Law Offices of Pavel Sterin was extremely efficient, cordial, and easy-to-deal-with in helping me handle two traffic tickets; both of which involved unfair citations by the officers.
Pavel simplified the tedious processes in dealing with the courts and patiently explained things to me.
I appreciate the time and work Pavel was able to provide. I will be returning and recommending my friends.
I contacted Paul regarding a question I had about a case I was involved in. He was quick to answer my call, and understood the law like the back of his hand. Another thing I really like about Paul's office was his staff, they were so nice! I hate being treated like I'm a number but Paul's people were friendly and courteous, even when I was frustrated. All in all, Paul is a bull-dog of an attorney when he's dealing with insurance companies. But when it comes to his clients he treats us w/ respect
I retained Mr Sterin for a car accident 6 months ago, very professional service and great and friendly staff. Mr Sterin was always very responsive and personally got back to me and answered each question I had. I was very happy with my settlement, a lot more than I expected: I would definitely recommend this office to my friends and will use this lawyer again.
I contacted Pavel Sterin to discuss actuarial and expert witness services to increase the settlement amounts they can negotiate for their clients. I have received no response. Arthur B. Kagan, FSA, EA.
I really wish I had not used this firm! It’s been over a year since my accident, going on 2 years but the insurance has paid and all the bills have been paid! The lady that answers the phone doesn’t have any kind of true customer satisfaction skills at all! She told me my claim is complete but then says that it takes time to make sure all is paid! There should not be a complete ID there’s still bills to pay! And my case manager is so non informational during this process! When I ask about my settlement I’m told that billing delivers checks 2-3 times a month and there’s been no deliveries this month! WOW! Wonder why this is? There are so many other injury firms, choose one of them not this one, you’ll be disappointed!
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
